Bit of football trivia I hadn't realised before, that Brentford's Ben Mee is the great grandson of the late Bertie Mee. The manager of the 1971 double winning Arsenal side.

When I first started going down to Filbert St as a 10 year old ... one of the songs the 'naughty lads' would sing went:

:emoticon-0159-music Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly,
Have you heard of the North Bank, Highbury?
Shanks said "No, I don't think so"
"But I've heard of the Leicester, boot boys" :emoticon-0159-music

This ref had given Brentford every opportunity tbf, we get stick for things going our way but the ref has been awful here.

Watched the first half before I got bored and it seems Brentford’s game plan is to fall over at every opportunity and hope they get something from the resulting free kick. The commentator said they had most goals from set pieces and I can see why!
